4 years ago Turns out, that the old QT4 had to be unlinked. I got it working with the following commands in the terminal:
brew unlink qt@4 brew link qt5 --force qmake
And then finally ./configure in the dir of the monitor
Hi
I have recently tried upgrading the rcssmonitor from 15 to 16.
The build worked fine for 15, but for 16 i get an error regarding qt5.
I have attached the error messages her: `checking for pkg-config... /usr/local/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes configure: set QT_REQUIRED_VERSION... 5.0.0 configure: set QT_MAJOR_VERSION... 5 configure: set QT_REQUIRED_MODULES...

As you can see here, it is installed:
philipholler@MacBook-Pro rcssmonitor-16.0.0 % brew info qt5 qt: stable 5.14.1 (bottled), HEAD [keg-only] Cross-platform application and UI framework https://www.qt.io/ /usr/local/Cellar/qt/5.14.1 (10,389 files, 363.0MB) Poured from bottle on 2020-04-22 at 11:03:05 From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/qt.rb ==> Dependencies Build: pkg-config ✔ ==> Requirements Build: xcode ✔ Required: macOS >= 10.12 ✔ ==> Options --HEAD Install HEAD version ==> Caveats We agreed to the Qt open source license for you. If this is unacceptable you should uninstall.
qt is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local, because Qt 5 has CMake issues when linked.
If you need to have qt first in your PATH run: echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/qt/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
For compilers to find qt you may need to set: export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/qt/lib" export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/qt/include"
For pkg-config to find qt you may need to set: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/qt/lib/pkgconfig"

As you can see, i do have qt5 installed, but it is not recognised when using ./configure in the directory.
Why might this be?
I am using MacOS 10.15.4 Catalina.
